Family Guy

Show generally

Other mistake: It makes no sense that Brian ever drives a car. His feet don't even touch the pedals! Hes always sitting like a normal person does when they drive.

Screwed The Pooch - S3-E13

Other mistake: When Stewie asks if the sheep is being "baashful", the animation of the duck nearest the camera keeps repeating. Watch carefully and you will see 2 bits of grain moving backwards and forwards in a horizontal motion. (00:00:35)

Trump Guy - S17-E11

Factual error: While Trump is showing Peter around the White House, Trump stops and says, "Sorry, can you hang on a sec, gotta close this window, Melania's out there blowing bubbles for Eric." It's a fact that windows are not allowed to be opened in the White House for security sake. Michelle Obama was unaware at first and opened one and the secret service ordered her to shut that window immediately.

Chitty Chitty Death Bang - S1-E3

Revealing mistake: After the manager of the arcade takes money from other customers and cancels Stewie's reservation, Peter and Chris start walking along a row of arcade machines. Here the background was just copy and pasted over again, as they walk by the same place twice, and start a third time before the scene changes. (00:07:35)

Quantom X

I Never Met the Dead Man - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: At the stop light, Meg starts racing a guy on a horse drawn carriage. When they leave the light, they are going down a road by a cliff side, and suddenly there are no lines in the road from the side angle. When it cuts to the carriage's wheel coming off, suddenly there is a dotted yellow line in the road by it. (00:03:17)

Quantom X

Saturated Fat Guy - S15-E16

Continuity mistake: When Cleveland and Peter are in his car making sandwiches, Peter originally makes one sandwich that he splits with Cleveland. When the two men approach the car, saying they smelled something good, they offer $10 a piece for a sandwich. Peter then hands them each a sandwich that he couldn't have made that quickly.

Carla Nadia Greca

Peter's Daughter - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: Meg comes in the kitchen and Peter pulls out her chair for her. Next shot of Meg shows a plate of food appear out of nowhere. Peter, Lois and Chris had a plate in front of them and there was no plate in front of Meg at any time. There was no other food in sight on the counter or stove either. (00:15:00)

Partial Terms of Endearment - S8-E21

Continuity mistake: In this episode, Lois is shown to have dated Naomi during college. But in the episode "Meet The Quagmires", it was established that Lois and Peter were already dating when Lois was eighteen. She accepted Peter's marriage proposal at that age. She would have been engaged and possibly married during college, not dating other people.

Lois: Hello?
Peter: I can't take the trash out today, I'm working late at the office.
Lois: The caller ID says you're calling from the kitchen. In fact I can see you.
Peter: [Edging sideways.] OK, can you see me now?
Lois: No.
Peter: Now I am at the office.

Grumpy Old Man - S10-E9

Trivia: One of the cutaway gags is about someone who survived 9/11 because he was late for work watching late night football. Seth MacFarlane missed his flight, which would have been one of the flights to crash into the World Trade Center, because his agent had given him the incorrect departure time. The plane was scheduled to depart at 7:45 AM and his agent had told him it was departing at 8:15 AM. By the time Seth arrived the boarding had been closed and he was told he would have to catch a later flight.

Business Guy - S8-E9

Question: In the episode, Peter threatens to fire Lois, and she responds with "you wouldn't" and Peter then replies with "Oh really, does the name Lacey Chabert mean anything to you?" which in turn makes Lois go wide eyed and reply with "OK, I'll behave" and Peter then goes on to add "Yes you will" Can anyone explain this joke if it is a joke to comprehend?

Answer: Lacey Chabert was the actress who originally voiced Meg in early episodes. She left of her own accord due to being in school and other acting work; Seth MacFarlane has stated there was no tension with her leaving, but it makes for a handy joke for the show.
